Production

Jackie Chan was originally offered a role in the film. However, Chan turned down the role due to scheduling conflicts and his son Jaycee Chan's recent drug arrest. Filming for The Bodyguard began in August 2014. On 22 September, guest star Andy Lau filmed an action scene in Vladivostok, Russia where he portrays a thief who stole a bag of diamonds and flees by jumping from a building to the top of a car. At the same day, director Sammo Hung also says that there are only ten days of scenes left that have yet to be filmed.
